UPSSSC OTR 2026: The Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission (UPSSSC) has introduced a One-Time Registration (OTR) system to simplify the application process for candidates appearing in the Preliminary Eligibility Test (PET) and future recruitment examinations.
The facility became operational on July 14, 2026, and will allow aspirants to register their personal, educational and contact details only once. After completing OTR, candidates will receive a unique registration number that will be used while applying for future UPSSSC recruitment notifications, reducing the need to repeatedly fill in the same information.

What Is UPSSSC OTR?
The newly launched OTR system is designed to create a permanent digital profile for candidates. Once registered, applicants can use their OTR number for future UPSSSC recruitment processes, including PET and main examinations.
According to the commission, the facility is completely free of cost and aims to make the recruitment process faster, more transparent and less prone to errors. Candidates who had already registered for PET 2025 can also complete OTR using their PET registration number.
